Enlarge(Stop 16) Blacksmith Shop - This area housed the
garrison blacksmithing and forging operations. The garrison blacksmiths
were housed within these two rooms. They worked on anything of iron that
was made inside the Fort. Horses were not used in any great quantity on
Dauphin Island and if they needed shoes it would not have been these men
who worked on them but rather a specialized type of Blacksmith called a
Ferrier who was located outside the Fort
